Restore Your Vehicle’s Electrical System with a VIN-Programmed BCM
Are you battling frustrating electrical gremlins in your GM truck or SUV? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, or a security system that acts up are common signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a cascade of confusing and disruptive issues. This replacement BCM, part number 22846365, is the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s functionality and peace of mind.
Unlike a standard replacement part from a dealership or local parts store, this module arrives at your door fully programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN. We handle the complex flashing process for you, loading the latest GM software updates before we ship. This eliminates the need for expensive dealership programming, saving you time and money. Simply provide your VIN during checkout, and we’ll ensure the module is a perfect match for your vehicle’s options and configuration.
Is Your 2012-2014 Tahoe BCM Failing?
A faulty Body Control Module can manifest in numerous ways, often intermittently at first. If you’re experiencing several of the following symptoms, your BCM is the likely culprit. This programmed module is designed to resolve these exact issues and get your truck or SUV operating like new again.
Common Symptoms of a Bad BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, and mirrors.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights that stay on, flicker, or don’t work at all.
- ✔ The security system or alarm randomly activating or preventing the vehicle from starting.
- ✔ Malfunctioning windshield wipers or radio controls.
- ✔ Inaccurate gauge readings or warning lights on the dashboard.
- ✔ Communication errors with other vehicle modules, often flagged by a diagnostic scan tool.
- ✔ Key fob not working correctly for locking, unlocking, or remote start.
Simple Installation and Post-Install Procedures
This BCM is located under the steering column for easy access. Once the new module is installed, it is largely a plug-and-play process. However, depending on your specific vehicle, a couple of simple relearn procedures may be necessary to fully sync the new module with other systems. These are common industry-standard procedures for this type of repair.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: In some cases, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be required to ensure proper operation of the brake lights and traction control system.
We make the process even easier with our no core charge policy. You don’t have to worry about the cost or hassle of sending your old, faulty module back to us.
